Poppino, Catherine. "ABLE 8 - Introduction to MARC." Idaho Commission for Libraries. Idaho Commission for Libraries, 2010. Web. 23 Aug. 2013. <http://libraries.idaho.gov/files/able/able8/player.html>. You will need to take the little internal quizzes along the way in order to finish this unit. It will take about an hour to go through the discussion.
From the information in Chapter 7, pay particular attention to these fields below - MARC tags and subfield codes (often designated by a dollar sign, although there is some variation in this. Subfields can be indicated by and underscore _; or a bar |) Subfield examples.
Becoming acquainted with the most common MARC fields
Look at the five books reproduced on pp. 115-119
Using the exercise sheet that I've included below, guess what would go into the MARC fields from looking at the title and verso pages of these five books. We're just starting the process of becoming familiar with MARC tags and the information that is associated with the field and the MARC records for these books will have be more complex than just what we are working with this week.
If you don't have Microsoft Office on your machine, you can download the file and then upload it to Google Docs and then proceed.
Now, go to the back of the book and look at the answers (pp. 153-157). How did you do?
Here is what your textbook would look like. I've annotated some of the common characteristics of a MARC record.
On Blackboard for this week comment on things you have questions about from doing this exercise. We will address those questions during the Skype session next week.
